Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows tools, settings, and workflows (such as PowerShell, Notepad, Notepad++, Windows Explorer, Windows Terminal, and region settings) are frequently mentioned, often before or instead of their Linux equivalents. Many screenshots and examples focus on Windows environments, and encoding conversion is primarily shown with PowerShell before mentioning Linux commands. Some Linux tools (iconv, file) are included, but often after Windows-centric explanations. There are also sections where only Windows-specific troubleshooting or configuration is described, with less detail for Linux or macOS clients.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux and macOS examples are presented alongside Windows examples, not just after or as an afterthought.
  • When describing encoding conversion or file viewing, provide Linux/macOS command-line examples (e.g., iconv, file, cat, locale) before or alongside PowerShell/Notepad workflows.
  • Include screenshots from Linux terminals (e.g., GNOME Terminal, Konsole) and macOS Terminal, not just Windows tools.
  • When referencing configuration steps (such as changing encoding or fonts), provide equivalent instructions for Linux and macOS environments.
  • Mention Linux and macOS client behaviors and troubleshooting steps with the same level of detail as Windows.
  • Avoid assuming Windows as the default client; use neutral phrasing or rotate the order of OS examples.
  • Highlight cross-platform tools (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim) for encoding inspection and conversion.
